Let C(G) denote the set of lengths of cycles in a graph G. In the first part of this paper, we study the minimum possible value of |C(G)| over all graphs G of average degree d and girth g. Erdos conjectured that |C(G)| =\Omega(d^{\lfloor…

It is known for some time that a random graph $G(n,p)$ contains w.h.p. a Hamiltonian cycle if $p$ is larger than the critical value $p_{crit}= (\log n + \log \log n + \omega_n)/n$. The determination of a concrete Hamiltonian cycle is even…

We answer a question about the diameter of an order-super-commuting graph on a symmetric group by studying the number-theoretical concept of $d$-complete sequences of primes in arithmetic progression.

Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph with adjacency matrix $A$, and $W=[e,Ae,\ldots,A^{n-1}e]$ be the walk matrix of $G$, where $e$ is the all-one vector. In Wang [J. Combin. Theory, Ser. B, 122 (2017): 438-451], the author showed that any graph…

Let $G$ be a simple connected graph. We use $n(G)$, $p(G)$, and $\eta(G)$ to denote the number of negative eigenvalues, positive eigenvalues, and zero eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix $A(G)$ of $G$, respectively. In this paper, we prove…

It was conjectured by Koh and Tay [Graphs Combin. 18(4) (2002), 745--756] that for $n\geq 5$ every simple graph of order $n$ and size at least $\binom{n}{2}-n+5$ has an orientation of diameter two. We prove this conjecture and hence…

We introduce and study the conical curvature-dimension condition, $CCD(K,N)$, for graphs. We show that $CCD(K,N)$ provides necessary and sufficient conditions for the underlying graph to satisfy a sharp global Poincar\'e inequality which in…

The circumference denoted by $c(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the length of its longest cycle. Let $\delta(G)$ and $\omega(G)$ denote the minimum degree and the clique number of a graph $G$, respectively. In [\emph{Electron. J. Combin.} 31(4)(2024)…

We prove that the spectral gap of generalised pancake graphs is strictly less than 2 and strictly less than 1 for burnt pancake graphs. In addition, we establish lower bounds on the multiplicities of certain integer eigenvalues of…

The Steiner $k$-diameter $sdiam_k(G)$ of a graph $G$, introduced by Chartrand, Oellermann, Tian and Zou in 1989, is a natural generalization of the concept of classical diameter. When $k=2$, $sdiam_2(G)=diam(G)$ is the classical diameter.…

The concept of gcd-graphs is introduced by Klotz and Sander, which arises as a generalization of unitary Cayley graphs. The gcd-graph $X_n (d_1,...,d_k)$ has vertices $0,1,...,n-1$, and two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent iff…

Random hyperbolic graphs were recently introduced by Krioukov et. al. [KPKVB10] as a model for large networks. Gugelmann, Panagiotou, and Peter [GPP12] then initiated the rigorous study of random hyperbolic graphs using the following model:…

The $d$-Fibonacci digraphs $F(d,k)$, introduced here, have the number of vertices following generalized Fibonacci-like sequences. They can be defined both as digraphs on alphabets and as iterated line digraphs. Here we study some of their…

We establish explicit unconditional results on the graphic properties of the prime gap sequence. Let $p_n$ denote the $n$-th prime number (with $p_0=1$) and $\mathrm{PD}_n = (p_\ell - p_{\ell-1})_{\ell=1}^n$ be the sequence of the first $n$…

Let $t,q$ and $n$ be positive integers. Write $[q] = \{1,2,\ldots,q\}$. The generalized Hamming graph $H(t,q,n)$ is the graph whose vertex set is the cartesian product of $n$ copies of $[q]$ ($q\ge 2$), where two vertices are adjacent if…

Let $G$ be a finite simple non-complete connected graph on $\{1, \ldots, n\}$ and $\kappa(G) \geq 1$ its vertex connectivity. Let $f(G)$ denote the number of free vertices of $G$ and $\mathrm{diam}(G)$ the diameter of $G$. Being motivated…

In this paper we introduce a new infinite class of bipartite graphs, called jumped Wenger graphs, which are closely related to Wenger graphs. An tight upper bound of the diameter and the exact girth of a jumped Wenger graph $J_m(q, i, j )$…

The generalized Kneser graph $K(n,k,t)$ for integers $k>t>0$ and $n>2k-t$ is the graph whose vertices are the $k$-subsets of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ with two vertices adjacent if and only if they share less than $t$ elements. We determine the…
